Above the clouds without fear: ALPEN AIR’s strategies for overcoming fear of flying.

Many people who suffer from a fear of flying often struggle with irrational fears. The uncertainty associated with the unknown can create significant obstacles. ALPEN AIR recognizes these fears and wants to help its passengers overcome them. Our experience shows that positive feedback from a first-time flyer after a sightseeing flight can be an inspiring source of motivation.

Strategies for overcoming fear of flying: ALPEN AIR focuses on trust and comfort

Previous and methods for overcoming fear of flying include medical approaches that can be considered. Short-term use of sedatives after medical consultation can help to alleviate the symptoms of anxiety. In addition, breathing techniques, meditation, hypnotherapy or cognitive behavioral therapy can often help to calm the body in this stressful situation. However, these strategies are sometimes short-lived or not necessarily successful. What helps to completely overcome the fear of flying without medical help or long therapies, on the other hand, is a classic gentle introduction to an airplane and flying itself. A combination of psychological strategies and positive experiences.
